Here are some suggestions that could improve the dodge mechanic, which is currently quite simple for all the gameplay it could offer.

1- A greater number of dodges could be added at the same time, for example: the player could have three dodges to perform consecutively and each of these has a cooldown time to recover, thus, the player could dodge more often but if Doing it too often could run out of the ability to dodge, this of course without removing the original mechanics of the mod that makes the heavier an armor, the slower each dodge recovers
2- a resistance bar could be implemented, the idea would be to do it in the dark souls style, to have a bar that empties every time the player dodges and fills up again with the passage of time, the heavier an armor that the player has, more quantity resistance bar will be emptied
3- the dodges are unlimited, but they consume the hunger bar very quickly and the player will stop dodging when the hunger bar reaches the minimum limit in which it could naturally sprint, the heavier an armor, more food it will consume when dodging
4- You could implement two or all three methods to dodge, leaving the option to the player the style of play that they want to choose by modifying the configuration file.
